Lyrics:
English: Priceless Copper
When the grief
comes for you
I won’t let you
drown
let you slip away
I won’t
when it pours out
I don’t need
just let me know
no words
a hint of light
and I’ll pull you from ever
ever-after
from the gutter
like a penny
I’ll hold
your head, tired eyes
in the crease
of my palm
shining
I can’t help
but think of you as luck
Spanish: Cobre Milagro
Cuando el dolor
viene por ti
no te dejare
ahogas
Dejarte escurrirse
no hare
cuando se derrama
No necessito
solo dejame saber
sin palabras
un toque de luz
y te jalare siempre
para siempre
desde la cuneta
como un centavo
Yo embrazate
tu cabeza, ojos agotados
en el pliegue
de mi palma
brillante
Yo veo ti
como un milagro
Andy Akiho
